And why is platinum even smaller? In this video, we compare 1 troy ounce silver, gold, and platinum bars side-by-side to reveal the surprising truth about precious metal density. Even though all three bars weigh the exact same amount — 1 troy ounce (31.103 grams) — their physical sizes are dramatically different because each metal has a different density. Average Density of These Precious Metals: • Silver: ~10.49 g/cm³ • Gold: ~19.30 g/cm³ • Platinum: ~21.45 g/cm³ How These Metals Rank in Density Among the World’s Metals: • Platinum is the 3rd densest metal in the world. • Gold is tied as the 5th densest metal in the world. • Silver is much less dense by comparison and ranks far below gold and platinum. The only metals denser than platinum are osmium and iridium — two extremely rare platinum-group metals. Because silver is far less dense than gold or platinum, a 1 oz silver bar must physically take up more space. Gold is significantly denser, allowing the same weight to fit into a smaller bar. Platinum is even denser than gold, making it one of the smallest common precious metal bars for the same one troy ounce weight. Approximate Average Sizes for 1 Troy Ounce Bars: • 1 oz Silver Bar: ~50mm x 29mm x 2.5mm • 1 oz Gold Bar: ~40mm x 23mm x 1.8mm • 1 oz Platinum Bar: ~32mm x 18mm x 1.7mm We also weigh each precious metal bar on camera to show how assay cards and packaging can slightly increase the displayed total weight.

A Penny Pallet of 95% Pure Copper
https://www.moneymetals.com/pre-1983-95-percent-copper-pennies/4
Money Metals’ Mike Maharrey just rolled out something you don’t see every day… a pallet stacked with 95% pure copper pennies.
In this quick 30-second clip, Mike explains why those old pre-1982 “copper cents” are worth far more in melt value than today’s modern pennies. Before 1982, U.S. pennies were struck from an alloy that is 95% copper. Modern pennies are mostly cheap base metal — 97.5% zinc with only a thin copper plating.
Money Metals has more than 30,000 pounds of these older copper pennies set aside. With the penny now officially ending its run in 2025, the gap between the face value and the metal value
